Archery world Championships III

Just a quick update since the internet connection is on the blink....The men also had a below par outing at the world championships in the elimination rounds yesterday. They finished in 14th place and the thing going for them is that most of the teams are all equal and its very little margin separating the teams. So coming into the Olympic rounds our guys are positioned well to be able to win a round and thus secure a Beijing berth.

Rahul Banerjee had the best day and is in 10th place overall. Somai Murmu also had a decent day, the team was let down by Tarundeep Rai who shot below his capabilities but will have a chance to make it up in the Olympic rounds.

Today is a rest day, with the individual elimination for both men and women tomrrow.
